I'm just done with all these people talking about what they identify as. No one wants to be who they are. I identify with being tired of hearing the b.s!
Timah R. That last line you wrote will be on a t-shirt... If you do not mind... Because I feel the same way you feel " I identify with being tired of this bullshit!"... it's like these people cannot live without having some type of label.
Joey Youn it's because we were stripped of our heritage and we have a sense of belonging to a more detailed culture like how Africans are not just african they are Nigerian or Ghanaian.
For real!
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Good Afternoon, I swear i can't wait for this fake #woke trend to end....
edit: before ya'll come at me with the "black native American" angle, STOP and actually watch the video smh, if you would watch rather then being "first"
you would see i clearly addressed it... so yeah black natives do exists.
with that being said until waka flocka woke provides proof, i'm not believing him, i find it funny how he knows for certain he has no black ancestry, but proudly proclaimed his european & native ancestry with certainty...
lovelyti2002 woke means lost this lost these days.
You and me both!
Man these fake ass Woke are the most annoying I swear.He claims he's not black but goes around using N word so freely. Man miss me with bullshit ugh.
lovelyti2002 I get what he's saying, he just poorly said it. But in the big picture, I do agree, geographical ancestry doesn't mean s*** to white supremacy. I think his stance is moot..
lovelyti2002 Dane Calloway look him up on RUclips you might be surprised and that guy on your video was not educated lol just my opinion.
"Get Ready, Y'all get ready"
"Yes! You get ready"😂..never gets old
Aspen K. Same sis, it always gets me hype 😂
Aspen K. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Aspen K. I really wanted to see the original video of this discussion (lmao)
Lz. I be wandering what video that’s from too. Yes! You get ready. 😚😘😂👀
Äålïå Såmöñe you'll have to scroll through her video because she done the news on the McDonald situation.
He reminds me of those kids back in middle school that would brag that their parents and grandparents are mixed with this and that
sad cycle of self-hatred.
Not gonnn lie I used to do that... until I got older and realized how ignorant I sounded. Now I claim my blackness and when ppl mistaken me as another race because I so called don't have the typical black girl look.. I get offended. Being called "exotic" is no longer a compliment it's actually an insult as if you can't be beautiful and black. I have no kids yet so I try and teach my nieces, nephews and little cousins this
Akilah C. Girl you look African as hell tho 🤔😭
rican n00b exactly lmao she's just talking girl pay her no mind. Weirdo.
Yall are sick. Self-hatred ia falling for the trick in thinking you're African
Why are black people so quick to denounce their Africa roots
joseph_slays
Only American!
joseph_slays you mean African Americans
I’m black so I can refer others as black
I think it's because we aren't all doing our DNA tests. We don't know what country we are from. I think I would have way more connection if I knew what country I was from. But most people just feel that they aren't from there because they were born here and all of there great great grands
We were here first in America I don't come from Africa they don't even claim us.
I've been seeing this alot. Like ppl love to get fame & eat off the black culture, but they don't like to be called black. It's crazy to me.
Ieasha Edmond SAY IT AGAIN!! 😩😭💯💯🙌🏾😒😒 I’m so sick of it!
Why trip now..we all know from even back in the day..that we were called negro then about 20 years or less then that they call us Black American/ or Africian American
But all our life we have been called Black People
it is what it is
Be Black and Proud
..but to all due respect...when you apply for a job they ask you for your idenity..
so if the dude say he don't got black in him..ok..however..he looks black to me
to each it's own
so..reall
Ieasha Edmond ...I don't like to be called black either. it's a title given to by pink pple YES I said PINK pple I call them what they really are. The pink pple called African-American black and themselves white to differentiate and seperate the good from the bad in their case they the good and the African Americans are the bad. DON'T BELIEVE ME look in the dictionary what is the meaning of black depressed, evil, dirty etc. Now lookup the meaning of white says it means color of innocence, angelic, pure. Now look up meaning of compound words with the word black before it most of those words beginning with the word black means something bad. Now lookup sum compound words with the word white before it THEY ALL mean something good EVEN A LIE IS GOOD if you just put the word white b4 it. So F that I'm going with african American and for color some are brown some are chocolate, some caramel some tan, some copper, some beige, some champaign, I'm Golden 😁
So anyways we are NOT a color and we are not a language we are a culture. Since European American want to call themself and others a color -which I already explained WHY they did that- then we should call them the color that they really are pink. I WILL NOT CALL THEM WHITE AS PER THE MEANING OF WHITE HELL NO!And none is orange that's just a color they gained from a tan gone bad 😂
As for the color black they want to call African Americans thats THEIR ideals for racist purpose and so it needs to seriously be squashed.
DarkManX Tv 😑😑😑 ugggh, most Afrian Americans do call themselves black. Now, when i said black, i was referring to African Americans. I am african American & i do call my self a black female, but i also say African American. Neither is wrong.
prince trill okay your not black ir african american, so why are you here?
You don’t identify as black, but y’all sholl do love black dollars.
Regan Regail amen
I'm not mad at waka flaka I get what he was trying to say he just worded it horribly,but all these difference in opinion about what we are should wake people up in itself. why blame the victim when we can blame the perpetrator ? Is it our fault we don't know what we are specifically. no one finds it odd that every other race can trace their family back and know who they are .it was a smart way to keep us divided so they can conquer if we don't know who we are we can't claim power and be confident and if we dont consider ourselves "family" and all the same thing we won't help each other out and work together like other races.you never see black people like the Hispanics work together come up together because our identity was stolen from us we are all question marks who look at each other sideways because we can't bond unless we know we are the same thing. Now some are saying we are the Israelites I'm not gonna say whether I think it's true or not but I have noticed since these people have found their "identity" there are more black people coming together and seeing each other as brothers and sisters. This wasn't an accident that happend because of slavery they did this to us on purpose they knew exactly what they were doing and are still doing.waka flaka is a distraction let's focus on why they lie in history books and what they are hiding,let's focus on why in the past when black people knew more about who they were we were United and now after they did everything possible to keep us confused we are more divided.
Okay!!!! 👏👏👏
Regan Regail Amen! Black, African American, all of that and PROUD of it.
I love how fast people click on the notification 😂😂😂
I love the fact that your opinions are very unbiased, you just call shit how you see it. Also, I did not know that some Native Americans enslaved Africans so I definitely learned something new. I'm really glad I watched this video, I love learning new stuff! 💯💯
Evan G I learned that when Henry Louis Gates Jr. profiled Don Cheadle who's ancestors were owned by the Cherokee in Oklahoma.
I strongly believe I'm indigenous to the Americas, my ancestors were here ions before the Mongolians came over the ice bridge. Pangea broke apart later then theorized and original people are older than theorized. Our negroid faces cover the walls of everywhere in the world, why not the Americas. Olmec head, ancients mounds North America, Atlanta, Cahokia, Louisiana. Research Walter Ashby Plecker, south american pyramids, ancient mounds north america. Oh also, Albert Perry is a "black" man from the US carolina, his DNA is over 340,000 years old. How many on this continent share his DNA, a mystery, the whoevers decided to fact find in Africa, not the Americas. fyi.
I never heard of an native American enslaving black people..
some of
I never heard of an native American enslaving black people..
some of these people say anything
Kesha Terry The tribes recognized as civilized tribes by the US government allowed slavery.
I'm sure Ms. Deborah (mother) is shaking her weave saying "the only Native American is the hair I have on my head!" "You dam fool!" 🤣
Chiatea Prince lololololol
💀💀💀💀
Lmfaooo 💀💀💀💀😂😭😭😭😭I'm tooo done
Lmao every bit of that 27 piece is shivering okay! I love you Deb girl! 😘
The mom is probably pushing his agenda too. Hence the weave
My God makes no mistakes and I now refuse to let the brainwashed society try and brainwash me into not loving the skin i'm in. I was born in Nigeria and raised in America. I am black and proud...NO APOLOGIES HERE!!!!!
TheMayoHELLO 👏👏
YOU IS NOT BLACK YOUSR NIGERIAN!
My black ass doesn’t even care about idiots like this. Love you Ti hope you feel better and God bless.
FanTracy Astic Basically nobody cares
FanTracy Astic preach
I love being BLACK and proud.
YES!!!
Regan Regail Me too
Say it loud!!!
Regan Regail me too
@@theresearchguystl they called the Africans black at one point🤣🤣🤣
Waka like.... I'm not black I'm OJ.... 👀.. ...ok..😂
richard Williams Jr 😂
But I just want to know if Native American is written on his drivers license or is it black... oh okay👌🏾
mayi mbambi organizations will put your race for you based on how you look. 🤔
mayi mbambi Black people were in America before Columbus. Maybe he isnt African. And black has no standing in court, what your nationality
Maybe not, since when I took my written test, when they were taking my info, the lady asked me what I considered myself and I had to pause and be like "really?" even though I'm clearly black, but she said she had to ask.
Jahnel Jackson yes some people ask me that too-they are suppose to-not to assume.
mayi mbambi But I JUST want to know what part of Africa are you from??
Ti, you are on here dropping KNOWLEDGE!
This is why I love your videos because you don't just give uneducated opinions.
You are an educated, articulate woman who comes with FACTS.
Is he serious? He exemplifies exactly how they think of BLACK men in this country! Wake up!
In class, bored as fuck until Ti posted
Ayana Fletcher In class too
THANK YOU IM TIRED OF THESE HOTEPS AND HALF READ ASS MF! Thinking cause they read something , they can go and "regurgitate" . People need to know how to use words. Thanks Ti!!!!! For calling out this mess #fakedeep
What I LOOOOVVE is when they come at women like myself , who's nomenclature is far superior, who's life experience by definition exudes intelligence and who like Ti said "regurgitate" some BS they heard Amun Ra Ben Such and Such said. No analysis, no comparisons, no examples, no counterclaims. Waste of breath, and a detriment to the African diaspora.
Waka is crazy! I took my Ancestry DNA, and to my surprise I am 90% African which is unheard of because most black people in America are 76% of African descent and rarely have Native American ancestry. My mother told me I was part Cherokee because of my high cheek bones and I had less than 1% of Native American ancestry. Some people just don’t want to be black!
I absolutely agree that he MUST do more research and be able to competently and clearly articulate his point. Whatever the hell he is, he doesn’t seem too aware yet he is trying to educate the world about identity and encouraging us to discard the matrix that he himself is not clear about.
These are the times. People are slowly losing their minds. In a deep sleep calling it "woke"🤷♀️🤦♀️
Well if he ain't black, then give us back our culture and vernacular. Oh and STOP calling us "niggas" Das racist! 🤷🏾♀️
millienl ok he keeps saying he ain’t black but loves saying nigga 😂
Love your profile pic millienl. One of my favorite mutants
That’s what kills me about these “woke” people. They learn some arbitrary fact and run with it but can’t form a bigger picture. Yes there were dark skinned people in the America’s before the Europeans arrived but where you think they came from?! Also all people originated from Africa so it makes no sense to try and disassociate yourself from the African continent. But he thinks he educating folks, boy stop 😒
Are you serious? Lol well Africa is not even the original name. Big is this world is I be damn to believe every black person is from Africa that's just ridiculous.
Jerrand MuzicofDaArtz I think she meant ALL people come from Africa. A part of the scientific community believes in the "Out of Africa" theory, but it is a divided issue. One of the oldest skeletons was found there, and tracing migration of certain peoples back to Africa has lead to this theory.
Hlbb4 YES sis that's what's up so right
Have you ever wondered why they created the term "Black" do you know about the Census? These are ways the United States are trying to keep us trapped and we just bought into it if majority of the voted against Being labeled we would not be discriminated against as much there should be no such term as Black white African American Latino we all are people we can't be put In a certain category if you were born on American soil you are American look at the many interviews on celebs talking about going to other countries Morgan Freeman said he doesn't identify with the term African I don't see anyone trying to "lynch" him and I used that term to speak on the severity of the situation. In America if you open your eyes and seek the truth outside of the States you will find. That's why some artists get big and you never hear gossip about them or you dont hear them respond because they know no matter how much they try there will be some people who like staying in the dark. Please seek facts first.
RESPECTFULLY, the continental drift should be taken in consideration in these matters...
I see a lot of people getting their ancenstry results bragging about what little of percentage asian or european they are. Idk what little percentage of what I am. I know I'm majorly Black so i will stand by that. I think its cool people are discovering other parts of them but when it comes down to it even if you are half white half black like my son is, you will be accounted as black. even his father has a trouble understanding that even thought I've explained multiple times. we have strong genes. And no I would never discredit the other parts of geneology but black is a strong and beautiful part of us.
TickleMeTrish 13 here here 👽♍
THE whimsical1 Exactly. Sis (OP), you were on a great roll, but your last sentiment is contradictory, and truly almost as dangerous. Peace and Love to All.💞
Amen!! My mama is black from jamaica and my father is Indo-trinidadian not to mention the "unfortunate" European admixture on my mamas side but the world see me as black...period and i'm fine with that because i am proud of my African heritage & i love my people.
TickleMeTrish 13 I know someone who got their ancestry dna results, and found out they are 3% Asian and could not stop bragging about it. It was interesting.
I always associate biracial people as biracial or multiracial/multicultural. If you have direct relation to and were raised by a non black person, why would you be just black? We can embrace all parts.
So when do we get to a place as BLACK PEOPLE where we stop supporting those who denounce our community?? Let's have some pride.
Its funny these artist don't identify as black until them Album/mixtapes sales drop and they need them"black" $$$
D. Jones Jr. Lol
smh you right 🤔!
D. Jones Jr. These artist usually have a hard time properly conveying their message. He was just referring to indigenous melanated people. All blacks did not originate from slaves from Africa. Have we not forgot about Pangea?? There were already melanated people here. In the big picture I agree tho, who cares. As long a you have melanin..you black. White supremacy doesn't care about your geographical history
D. Jones Jr. ... shocker!!! They'll take that Black rapper check tho
D. Jones Jr. Right 🤣
You speak the truth Ti!! My great grandmother was full blood black foot Indian and was instrumental in our family being divided based on color, hair texture, and facial features. I can literally count the dark skinned people in my family. It's super sad. I am proud of my heritage, however I understand that it wasn't always the kindest to blacks.
Ok so he’s in the same boat as Keysha Cole, Monica and Lil Bow they not black but love making money off black culture 🤔
Wait, what did Monica say? 👀
P La Raven also
Goddess yeah I forgot about Raven
Whoaaa what Monica do?
Lyric عبد العليم Monica was saying one of her grandparents was Indian or some shit it was a few years ago and I love Monica she’s been one of my favorite singers since I was a child
"It's hard to explain" = "I don't know wtf I'm talking about."
He just wants attention
KinkyCrown no he just wanted to present another angle to why we don't need to stand for the flag. Ppl attacking him for acknowledging his lineage want attention.
Sharayah the way he explained it for me was off even his wife said his delivery was off. It came off as something negative instead of positive to me
Eliza M. i agree.while there may be truth to the indigenous claim, him claiming 0% african is def unfounded and guess work at best. and the european angle lost me
KinkyCrown and he's getting it unfortunately.😒😒😒
KinkyCrown -- He needs a mirror.
If he aint black should we be offended that he is using the N-Word???? Hmmmmm....
Aman Aman Exactly that would consider him to be racist seeing as how I'm sure he uses the hell outta that word! Smdh
Lynsey Roberson not really since black people call each other the n word all the time!
How is he not African or black how swayyyy lmao
There’s no such thing as African
LilethioMamo people focusing on the word choice which takes away from the history he's actually speaking on. All blacks do not originate from Africa mainland. There were melanated people already on this continent before slavery. Now does him identifying with those people mean anything in the system of white supremacy? Hell to the no. so its really a moot point
davon yes there is ETHNICALLY. People indigenous to Africa.
LilethioMamo sway ain't got the answers
You are legit talking to an African talmbout "There’s no such thing as African" what tf am I then? Or is Ethiopia fictional to you? Typical American fuckery this. Africa gave you life and all you do is spit in our faces. I hope this assimilation is working for you in America. I know for a fact that no one will love you like mama Africa does.
Black is a color. Not a nationality
That's right.
I demand to see the copy of Waka's DNA results. I guarantee his blood work says 85% AFRICAN 10% Native and 5% European just like the rest of us BLACK folk. I'm an African AND PROUD OF IT!
I want to see his DNA results also! Several blacks including myself, results have no indigenous American blood. It's purely African and European some Asian even.
KWEEN YAA ASANTEWAA yea he cray cray I have a tiny amount of native American dna I even have native American dna matches but I'm black that's what I know that's the majority of me. I would never claimed a culture I know very little about being Indian is not just about having long hair, and high cheekbones maybe that's what he think anyways it's sad that some of us don't think it's ok to be Black
I just want to know what African tribe My People are from. Are there any test for that? I notice the the ancestry DNA it pretty much gives us all the same percentage and places we came from.
anonymousprofess well African Americans and many other new world blacks are of West African decent, so that slims the results.
DNA ancestry test are hype. You would know if you done the research instead of believed everything that is promoted. Many scientists have spoken out against the limitations of this test. For one it doesn't test anyone's ancestors. So how is it an ancestry test?
Man my eyes rolled so far back from the title. But I better watch before judging.
Quindara King lol 😂 right
Ti your videos are so entertaining and educational. You speak truth in every video. Thank you for all your videos
My country flag was behind him🇰🇳🇰🇳🇰🇳🇰🇳. St.kitts i love you!
Anyways, as I havealways said I am happy and blessed to be from a country that is majority black. I have never felt weary of my skin or african features until I came to American and found out being black comes with a price.
Theo Allen Girl, I had a teacher that spoke about how there is a real identity crisis amongst african descendants who live in countries where the oppressors remained, ie America, vs countries where the majority of oppressors left like in the Caribbean. Thats y our mentality is different
basha E i see.
He had me up until the, "He has no African decent in him, really. "
Thanx you for mentioning the "5 civilized tribes" and how they owned slaves. Still to this day descendants of the slaves from the Cherokee tribe are going to court to get what is owed to them from the decades of free labor (slavery) their ancestors endured. These descendants are called Freedmen. Smh sick of natives leaving that piece of history out.
living life as a Black Male I can now see that I was born in the wrong body I now want to identify as a white female going by the name Priscilla. I will be expecting my white privilege card in mail this week, and I"m so excited to start my new life. #SecondChances #FingersCrossed #HaveABlessedOne
belle-bolingo Kd 😂😂😂😂
belle-bolingo Kd 😩😂💀⚰️
😂😂😂😂 funny asf
belle-bolingo Kd 😂😂😂😂
It is weird how many members of the rap community,I'm saying rap not hip hop on purpose, promote and perpetuate a lifestyle but behind closed doors are color struck and very insecure about their blackness. Misunderstood knowledge and ignorance is the key to many of our problems. I wish we loved ourselves as much as other people do. Believe it or not our skin and culture is coveted.
Kyla Kay A lot of them just show their true colors; weak and self-conscious. Want to "thug it up" and be black to be known, but leaves when success is filled, or real trouble comes.
Kyla Kay Yass!!! Say it again! Mad because you're not us. So you want us to feel bad about being us!
So, he’s appropriating the culture?😂😂😂
SimplyBeautiful70 Johnson sis you might be into something
whites black natives could rap 😑 lol if they want to
I appreciate what that man said around the 11:00 mark. A lot of our grandparents do speak of us having Native American blood, but we're told to dismiss it.
That's understandable about people with native American in them
but..the dude is saying he has no black in..
he ain't.blind...he wants attention
Who can prove people in the world actually have white skin and black skin in direct sunlight?
still learning, the Sudanese, red heads and albinos.
Ellie jay bro they are paint black and paint white? I think not. A picture doesn't reflect direct sunlight. There are no people in the world those colors.
Kesha Terry you should read more maybe then u won't b so dismissive. Not everything u learned is school is accurate
I had my DNA done. I have 80% African Ancestry. Most ofwhich is Nigerian. 2% Asian and 18% European
I want mines done😩
Him and bow wow, I mean shad moss, need to go somewhere..smh
Aspen K. They not contributing to the community. They can denounce themselves, it will not hurt nobody.
Aspen K. Where?
Aspen K. Don't wanna hear him saying nigga if hes native american like he says. Cant be black only when its convenient
Biracial Bow Wow
Aspen K.
Don't forget Keyshia Cole.
😂😂😂
Needed this video to calm my nerves after my job interview
Alana Johnson girl you probably did great!! ♥️♥️♥️
Alana Johnson hope you get the job!! 🤗🤗
Scarlett Harlow Thank you so much 💕
Kaila Richardson Thank you 😊😊😊
I hope you get it! Good for you! Get it girl!
If he wants to claim he's Native American fine, BUT if you're no longer black then lost the dreads, the black music, the black lengo everything
Dreadlocks were a Native American thing as well. It's not only restricted to cultures of African origin
Dreadlocks did not originate in black culture
Yes it did to the both of you, if that's the case then..... Well I been said it but Native Americans are already of the Black diaspora, it's SEVERAL tribes of Africans and Albinos wearing dreads since the beginning of time.
Morgan I agree with you! How would natives (who usually have straight hair) create a style that is only effective with kinky hair? sorry whites and other cultures that try to claim dreadlocks but your hair is MATTED, It's not locs like ours!
some Ojibway, Denae, Swampy Cree, Oji-Cree peoples and more, have all been observed at one point to have adorned dreads. These are tribes that would not have been effected by diaspora due to their isolated areas where their descendants can be found today, still isolated.
You can be what you want to be out here. I'm "Haitian", but I'm black. At least that's what I'll say before "Haitian" comes out. I dunno how many battles I've gotten into with Caribbean/ Africans when I mention my parents being Haitian speaking creole yet I don't, and so forth 🤷🏾♀️. Again, I'm BLACK. My parents are Haitian ❤️
AngiesbricK same!
✊🏿🇭🇹
Komen tale vouz!!!
What? Black is a race. Haitain is an ethnicity. You are black AND haitian. I am also black and haitian. Haitian is not a race and never will be a race. I get so annoyed by people acting like there arent different types of black. There are haitian blacks, jamaican blacks, cuban blacks, etc.
kuroichan101
You missed her whole point and went on a tangent for no reason. what she’s saying is she’s not gonna run around telling people she’s Haitian to discourage from the fact that she’s black. I have met a lot of Haitians and Jamaicans that will be quick to say they are Haitian or Jamaican, as if that is not a black person . But nonetheless, I love you my sister! ✊🏿🇭🇹
AngiesbricK 🤦🏾😂😂😂
ßARBiE KiLLER I think that the problem is that anybody can look at her and see that she is black, so when people ask, there is no point in stating the obvious, so you'd say that your haitian. And that does not mean that you are running away or discouraging the fact that your black, your simply not bothering to state whats obvious, and rather telling people something that they might not know about you
I feel like he's trying to say something deeper but he hasn't explained himself well at all. In the video he said I'm black but I'm not the black America calls me.
I think he's alluding to the stereotype and pseudo reality of struggle life and subordination and inherent inferiority etc they force black people to accept in order to condition them into a certain type of life. "The matrix"
But there are a lot of theories as to slavery and black people as indigenous peoples of various lands so it's easy to get confused
LOVELY LONDON GURL I agree his delivery may not be the best but he's using the knowledge he is learning and as he said he still is learning.
LOVELY LONDON GURL
You are absolutely right. He is alluding to the Melanesian people who look black but have no black blood. He believes that their were Native Americans that looked like Africans but weren't. But he is not articulate enough to explain that.
Someone who is Pacific Islander and has Melanesian blood here. Melanesians are still black and refer to themselves as such they're just not African. If he is referring to Austroloids being indigenous to the Americas he is still wrong. There's little to no evidence to support Austroloids ever ventured out of the Asia/West Pacific area during this period. No oral history no nothing. The only people with Austroloid blood that almost certainly reached the Americas pre-Columbus are the Polynesians who are an admixture of Melanesian (Austroloid) and Austronesian (an ancient group out of Southeast Asia). Still, when they arrived on American shores it was already inhabited by humans and they traded with the natives.
Yasmeen chickefoot no Native American looked like Africans! Black Americans look nothing lije Africans fool!
He trying to say he’s a Hebrew Israelite but can’t explain himself properly ...just like u said. He’s hasn’t read not one book or done further research beyond RUclips probably
Sunchild1913 No he didn't mean Hebrew Israelite; he spoke nothing of being the original man nor a direct decendant of Abraham nor of being the decendant of the original inhabitants of Israel. He stated that he had zero African blood and that he was Cherokee and Blackfoot because he is foolish enough to believe that malarkey that so many generations of black U.S.citizens also falsely believe. Almost every ignorant black person will tell you that their great great grandmother or grandfather was "Cherokee or Blackfoot" lol without having taken a single DNA swab.
Sunchild1913 I love your comment, one of the selected few that knows the truth...You know i suspect he knows about us being the bloodline Israelites...the way he said "im from a tribe"..only if he would of mentioned JUDAH
Is what I’m thinking. However all the tribes comes from the so called “black man” DNA.
Mila B black woman*
avilik13 lol it takes two
Thanx Ti, Society needs more out spoken voices like yours. You speak your mind and stand by your truth.💯💯💯
i am not black NO more i'm DELIVERT:
the afro loloz....😆
😂😂😂😂
the afro lol. 1st Kanye now Wocka.
lol you cant for forget that boy Shad Gregory Moss a.k.a bow wow
the afro delivert! Lol
Okay, but even if we support this theory that melanted people were here first...just like the people of Asian descent who traveled the Bering Strait, melanted people had to get on some boats and travel here too FROM AFRICA so even if we did get here before the Asians and Caucasians, you still migrated from the motherland.
Why did everything have to originate in Africa?
Didn’t the oldest humanoid remains come from Africa ? Not to mention the South African tribe who scientist believe are the precursor to people of Asian descent 🤣
+Imani Zelaya Not everything has to originate from Africa, but the black people who were in the Americas before the institution of slavery, were explorers from the continent of Africa. Africans, as well as Asians, had already designed vessels that would travel the world by water; and so, they were traveling the world, exploring, meeting the people of different lands and learning about those lands, etc. Waka may not know all of this, and so, he may not know that he is, in actuality, of African descent.
Yeno that man who was talking about how is native, looks like the actor that played "chicken George" on the remake of Roots . Lol random thought .
Black America is willing to take a loss on this one. We'll recover.
MelDoesNails ** black America always take losses so what are you talking about!
love your work Ti you always show both sides of the issue and i appreciate that, i did not know that those particular tribes helped keep slavery alive
thank you for actually taking time to watch the full video!
Ti ti you need to have a history channel cause i'm not learning this in school.👾👾👾👾👾👾👾
RIGHT! A lot of these schools don't teach much about Black History. Where I come from we learned a little about slavery & MLK ... That's about it. That's why we have to do our own research and teach each other.
Lyrix true we should research but just don't know where to start. I still have a lack of identity
That Dr. Claude Anderson interview was brilliant. And all the interview clips she added really broke this down. Her research game is on point! ✔
samy lynch nor I any of these churches
Ti you said it best, I am glad someone finally decided to at least discuss and visit this topic because I also have heard this growing up in my own family, but looking at the pictures of my family Waka Flaka did not articulate his words very well, but I am glad that you are intelligent and smart enough to let you viewers know the difference. Keep the good work!
Thanks for this Knowledge ..... keep it coming 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❤️❤️❤️❤️
Unfortunately there are many black people that will be more willing to tell you that they are 5%, 10% or 15% European, native to escape the reality of being seen as African. Just look at the videos on RUclips often many are disappointed that they are more than 85% African, apparently everybody great grandmother was native.
Look, I may not be from africa, but I'm afro-caribbean. I know that I have african blood in my blood line. I'm 89% sub-saharan african. I will never claim something that I'm not.
Exactly. People who get to claim their great-great-great-great grandparent's ethnicity as if it's a significant portion of their ethnic makeup are straight crazy. If Waka had an indigenous mother or father, he might have a point. But to say he has no African ancestry is just stupidity of the highest level.
Loooooool......If he says he isn't black allow him to be what he wants to be. It's 2017 I too can be a mountain rabbit 😩😩😩😩
💀💀💀
kole ivy 😂😂😂😂
😂😂 i love this whole thread
kole ivy mountain rabbits are the best rabbits.
kole ivy Such a clever joke. *cough* but seriously, you have to admit that this Waka Flocka feller is a fool, no?😆
For what it's worth: I am mixed (Black, Salish Indian and Mexican) and three words you will NEVER hear me say are "I'm not black." I appear very ambiguous, but have never downplayed or ignored my Black heritage and feel sorry for mixed folks who feel compelled to do so
100 sis. You always give a good perspective. Wheather i may agree or not. Facts are facts! and making a historical connection and being able to articulate it is key.
sooooo if you're not black then why you saying nigga 👀🤔
Bree Cannelle BLACK PEOPLE CALL EACH OTHER THE N WORD ALL THE TIME SO WHATS THE DIFFERENCE?
Jeffrei Jackson the difference is we don't use it to degrade our entire race, and using it with one another isn't to keep the agenda of white supremacy. Are you dumb?
+Jeffrei Jackson when WE do, how does it concern you or any non black people?
Nobody should be saying that word. Black people were degraded and lynched hearing that word, so everybody including black folks need to stop using it.
@Maxine Jones, Agreed!
Sooooo.....Deb is not black? OK
Alaina Theriot okay 👌🏾
Angela Allen 😂😂😂
I can see the native Americans giving Waka the side eye at his comment
Those damn Native Americans are 5 dollar Dawes rolls casino Reservation Indians proxy Phonies. From Siberia Mongolia which are the Nordic people and are basically Russians more damn white people. They know they aren't indigenous to America and so does trump. Just like he knows we aren't really Africans it is you dumb fuckers that keep claiming to be but haven't took your ass back to the African mainland continent yet. And nobody is holding you hostage anymore you can go back any time you want. Or go back to Isreal any time you want but you want because you don't know the languages any of the tribes speak in any of those 54 different countries. Or to scared to go back to Isreal because 9 times out of ten the Palestine people will run your asses back to America. Stop claiming shit you know you aren't you can't claim two damn continents at the same damn time wake up fool. Because that's what they are really side eyeing.
TI your videos lately are so informative and well done.
I've watched the video three times and I'm confused. where in REAL history books does it say that some 'blacks' are Native Americans? if they are Native Americans where is that in the Native American history?? can those tribes confirm this?
I'm from South Africa and even we like to claim S.A. as our land and us being the native whereas the Khoisan are the natives.
I sometimes feel as black people we try so hard to have something to claim because our identity as black Africans has been tarnished. for me I truly believe all races originate from Africa.
Let this BLACK man do a DNA test and can the Native Americans speak on this? they should have some knowledge concerning this.
Being native is more than looking native its about kinship and community. Not every clause of treaties contained African Slavery, there are many different types of treaties. Thank u for putting some good clips in there.
I believe I read somewhere that there were indigenous black people in addition to the ones that came from Africa but they are still black even if they're not African. Even if he meant he was native American in concerning these people they're still black.
Thank you!!
Thank you for breaking that down.
Jeanette Gupton that's exactly what he meant..he just poorly conveyed that. In the grand picture, it still doesn't matter lol..in the system of white supremacy...u black..period
Preach.
Well said
Thanks for the education ti, and shut down the "i'm not black" celebs 👏👏💯.
I kinda see where he’s coming from because, many African Americans have native American ancestry. But not all of us have Native American blood Wacka Flocka needs to do research on his family tree instead of just blurting out shit.
Thank You!! I did research on this very topic Five years ago. Come to find out Native Americans RARELY allowed interracial procreation between themselves and slaves. Those who did faced death as well as any children that were born as a result of this race mixing. They gave us THEIR tribal names but that's about IT. Very few, less than 5% of Black people can actually say they have Native American blood in them. Before we go running around spewing this nonsense we REALLY need to do our research FIRST! Native Americans loved to procreate with WHITES but not BLACKS!
Sketchnificent I'm sure he has that's why he's blurting it out
I love that you’re factual about everything
Waka is one of the people that believes that African Americans are actually Native Americans but white people told us we're from Africa. He pretty much thinks none of us are "black"...I agree with T. I think that's what he's trying see.
Why do most African American people claim to be native? I am aware that there are some folks who truly have "Indian" in their blood, but the percentage really isn't that high lol. What's wrong with just being Black? I'm a Jamaican of African descent and I'm proud of it. In the words of the reggae artist Peter Tosh, no matter where you come from as long as you're Black, you are African.
Mandy W. Girl I’m Jamaican too. These African Americans have their AFRICAN ancestors rolling in their graves. Shameful.
Many black Americans do have some amount of native or even white ancestry. But it's usually a very small amount. Oftentimes not even 25%. The only answer I can give is that a lot of these people have been indoctrinated into self-hating.
TALK DI TINGSSSSS!!!!
I agree sister. People tend to forget that many African based spiritual systems like New Orleans Vodun or Santeria which is practiced on the Islands have survived for a reason. Even the Geechi Gullah peoples of the Carolinas have maintained much of their African culture even after slavery. #ProudtoBeAfrican
Mandy W. he lost me with the whole 0% african claim, thats unfounded. there were indigenous melanated people here, however there is no way he can make that claim, mainly because there is no test that will 100% validate that claim..
I agree with your commentary on this. Awesome video !!
Honestly, aside from Waka and his bullshit statements, I love learning about shit that you wouldn't find in an average textbook. Thanks for educating me on Native Americans enslaving African Americans, Ti. I never knew that before.
Yaritza Arias ...It is interesting. I will have to read more on the topic to place the information in an appropriate context.
Native Americans are not a monolith. There were literally hundreds of Native American tribes in the Americas with different languages and cultures. To single out a few tribes is deceptive.
Amina Melancon Thank you for that. Context is important.
really i never heard it??? well it was Canada who knows...I'm like Natives I want my black tears back, after this video cause I cried about their treatment by whites in residential schools in Canada and to find out they agreed to treaties to enslave black people just spins my head and I have native Americans dark skinned like the darkest chocolate only their hair, cheekbones and nose tell you they are native I am just like wow
Jessica Franklin I just started college this year...I have yet to learn that and up until this point was ignorant to these facts, which is why I thanked Ti for informing me while I was uninformed.
If he doesn't have African blood in him, how does he explain his kinky hair?
I love you TI!!! I've been listening to you on & off for a while & i finally subscribed to your channel. You serve girl!!!
I agree with waka flacka. I'm not human I'm an alien.
Damilola Olagundoye tell Kanye and Kid Cuddi hi for me
Damilola Olagundoye 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Quindara King 😂
Please take me off this planet. I really don't want to be here.
Lol I can't
I'm so Proud to be Black. Im super proud of my black parents and the love of my life my wonderful beautiful black kids...God bless Tammi bc she got something on her hands with him..
I heard Wacka Flocka say one time that he had "bad hair", or "I don't got good hair, my shit is nappy". So f*ck anything he tries to say about race. There is no reason for him to even talk about this stuff. Just stick to EDM and hip hop, you're not a sociologist.
you stay educating and entertaining us. hats off to you queen. so happy that you're here to bestow us with your gift. blessing to you and all you do. and Miss Waka needs to shut tfu and sit down.
If Wocka Flocka is Indian then I'm French and Italian lol!!
Andrea Ledet and am chinese
I think all these black but not African people only deny their African roots due to the lies the media have told them about Africa. Africa is an amazing place and if it was promoted to be rich and peaceful people will then claim it.
White people also claim Native ancestry...where i live in Tennessee every other white person says they got Cherokee blood when they don't even look like it...and they have no proof...People should just embrace who and what they are...
ok lol,”my great grandads Indian but I look white”, I here that all the time.
ok I’m white and of Māori ancestry from what I have been told. it shows in my great grandmother and her mother but not me. my great great grandmother married a british man and so did my great grandmother.
I tend to think that is what rubs of on me since I’m the only blonde hair, blue eyed person.
Ancestry is interesting to study. But I wouldn’t catch me doing the haka or claiming i am full Māori . I’m just “white” so I agree.
TheDejesius Since you know it was your great grandpa then perhaps it is a proven documented fact that it is in your blood....One of your parents was one quarter Native correct...? Which makes you 1/16th right..? That would explain you looking more European....I have some friends up North that are enrolled and who are one quarter Native and they look Latino...the white and Native mixtures i have met who truly have Native blood have a Latino look....If it is in your family i would still be very proud though....and also of the European ancestry of course lol....
I see these "African Americans aren't black, but they're the true Native Americans" posts all over IG. And I get it. You look at some of the pics and tribal members do have black features. But they seem to forget that indigenous people also had black slaves. Most of the time, when a child has one full black parent, that child will look more black than non-black. Yeah, I can't wait til this nonsense is over as well. 😒
And people forget alot of native americans were enslaved, the hell they went through, the fact that so-called blacks, natives, and hispanics are mostly of the same nation according to the Bible
ladyinmauve only a few tribes did... Each tribe has a different culture. We have a few main things in common.
If you look at what tribes had black slaves they where the tribes that where colonized and early on...
Sharayah ok I think we understand that alot of natives were enslaved but the MAJORITY were African people... Africans are gentically stronger which is why they used them as slaves... meaning they brutalized black people more than indigenous people... for centuries black people went through a mass genocide and were brutalized by whites, natives, asians etc but the other groups get reparations... and what do black people still get, MASS GENOCIDE! So I believe it's very unfair to my black ancestors to compare their mass enslavement to the few indigenous people who were enslaved by demons
ladyinmauve the only thing is... Its not non sense.
I don't think we look like the natives. They have a European esscene in their face. They had really big heads and really big noses straight hair with orange skin. Idk how that looks like a black person. But I still believe we were aborginies to America. Nat Turner was actually believe to be a native. You should watch Dane Collaway. He does good research and provides receipts. No one ever tries to debunk him. Even whites are like danm that's some good info.
Wocka Flocka can still get arrested and be labeled as a black man and will be "treated" as such
I absolutely love how everyone says "I'm Black“ this "You're Black" that, but you don't realize that Black isn't a race nor ethnicity. When you refer to any other people on this planet you say their location of ancestral origin. Here you just say "I'm Black" like it describes anything, no cultural reference predating American Slavery. No landmass before slavery, not a single thing.
One of the biggest factors is that some accept Africa and some refuse it, while West Africans know there's no relation. For any "Pan-Africanist" reading this, Why Tf r there so many West Africans over here yet haven't even tried takin ya ass home? Y is it easy to tell who's a real African or who's not if ya the same ppl?
Another question, why would grandma and grandpa jus straight up lie in ya face about who u r? Everyone knows Indians are some shade of copper wit a red undertone in the natural light. There's a lotta shit that don't add up bout being called African American. Jesse Jackson came up wit dat in the 80s and our elders didn't want that.
If you look up the 1828 definition of "American" you'll rethink some stuff
Last thing, why is it that they treat us like savages while stealing our shit, and treat some of us as noble savages?🤔
Ti your the most woke person I know, next to my grandma! 😆 👵🏾
Waka flocka full-a caca!!!
Ms. E 😂😂😂😂 lmlll...
lo dwl lol #aweak
Too many people are trying to be things they aren’t. Whites trying to be Black, blacks trying to be biracial, Mexicans trying to be white. Obviously not all are, but this stems from feeling some kind of shame of who we are or where we come from. We should just be proud of who we are
A good example of an indigenous black tribe is the Garifuna people found in Honduras, Belize, and Guatemala. They look African but are indigenous people who still speak their native garifuna language which is an Arawak language.
"Garifuna are mixed-race descendants of West African, Central African, Island Carib, European, and Arawak people. "
Jenna Smith Tagata Maoi/Maoli/Maohi/Maori are indigenous people of Polynesia. The Aboriginals of Australia are Austroloid like the people in Melanesia. Despite appearances Europeans are more closely related to Africans than Austroloids and Austroloids were one of the first groups out of Africa and have some of the oldest cultures on earth. Phenotype and physical features are recessive traits and are hardly indicators of one's ancestry.
Meow
Wow
Lioness Of Judah The Garifuna have African and Native American ancestry. Their African roots come from a region located in modern day Nigeria. They were captives on a slave ship that happened to shipwreck in St. Vincent, that's where they originally integrated w Native Americans. So they actually do have African lineage.
He is 100% correct. Black people were in America before the slave trade. On this, I agree with him for a change. But its not something we talk about publicly because it can do more damage than good because most people don't know. I'm South African by the way.
But why go around saying " i am not black" like it's a bad thing. Why is there a necessity to separate yourself when it's obviously in your blood? I was born in Puerto Rico. I got pullover a few times. My ticket said African American under ethnicity. It doesn't bother me. I know African is in my blood. When I go outside I am seen as a black woman. I don't understand why lately people are separating themselves from their history.
Just educate yourself. Don't just say these things on social media because people read way too much into things.
Just plain ignorance
Thank you
Erika Casellas Black is a adjective and is not a person or noun. When you hold a black tv remote control next to your skin can you tell the difference between black and brown ???
Erika Casellas plus black is not a nationality period just like white is not it’s just plain common sense
In my Rick James's voice, "Cocaine's a helluva drug" 😩
I'm so woke, its INSOMNIA 😂😂😂😂
Shelly Lubin LMAOOOO
Shelly Lubin. 🙌
I gotta give it to you Ti, you keep us entertained and teach us things at the same damn time, salute 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I love this video! I was actually having this conversation with one of my friends a few weeks ago. Why are black people so quick to claim Native American, as if being just black is something negative? There is an episode of Finding My Roots where they discuss this very topic. They found that the majority of blacks living in the U.S are not Native American...9 times out of 10 it's really white. As for me, I am black mixed with black!!!
